This document is page 262 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets,' stamped by the House Oversight Committee. It details an interview with former KGB officer Cherkashin regarding the 1980 recruitment of former NSA employee Ronald Pelton, describing how Pelton was smuggled out of the Soviet embassy in Washington D.C. to avoid FBI surveillance. The text outlines the payment of $5,000 to Pelton and his subsequent transfer to Vienna to be debriefed by expert Anatoly Slavnov.
This document appears to be a page from a book or investigative report (likely by journalist Edward Jay Epstein, given the reference to his book on Angleton) discussing KGB espionage tactics. It details the handling of NSA spy Ronald Pelton, including payments totaling $35,000 and debriefings in Vienna regarding 'Project A' (undersea cable tapping). The author uses the Pelton case to analyze Russian intelligence's probable interest in and handling of Edward Snowden, suggesting they would aggressively exploit his knowledge just as they did Pelton's.
